Psalm 146 reminds us to put our hope and trust in God alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord, O my soul!
While I live I will praise the Lord;
I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
Do not put your trust in princes,
Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.
His spirit departs, he returns to his earth;
In that very day his plans perish.
Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help,
Whose hope is in the Lord his God,
Who made heaven and earth,
The sea, and all that is in them;
Who keeps truth forever,
Who executes justice for the oppressed,
Who gives food to the hungry.
The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners.
The Lord opens the eyes of the blind;
The Lord raises those who are bowed down;
The Lord loves the righteous.
The Lord watches over the strangers;
He relieves the fatherless and widow;
But the way of the wicked He turns upside down.
The Lord shall reign forever\u2014
Your God, O Zion, to all generations.
Praise the Lord!
(Psalm 146:1\u201310, NKJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is one of my favorite psalm settings of Psalm 146 from The Psalter<\/em>, 1912.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hallelujah, Praise Jehovah<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hallelujah, praise Jehovah,
O my soul, Jehovah praise;
I will sing the glorious praises
Of my God through all my days.
Put no confidence in princes,
Nor for help on man depend;
He shall die to dust returning,
And his purposes shall end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Happy is the man that chooses
Israel\u2019s God to be his aid;
He is blessed whose hope of blessing
On the Lord his God is stayed.
Heav\u2019n and earth the Lord created,
Seas and all that they contain;
He delivers from oppression,
Righteousness He will maintain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food He daily gives the hungry,
Sets the mourning pris\u2019ner free,
Raises those bowed down with anguish,
Makes the sightless eyes to see.
Well Jehovah loves the righteous,
And the stranger He befriends,
Helps the fatherless and widow,
Judgment on the wicked sends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hallelujah, praise Jehovah,
O my soul, Jehovah praise;
I will sing the glorious praises
Of my God through all my days.
Over all God reigns forever,
Through all ages He is King;
Unto Him, your God, O Zion,
Joyful hallelujahs sing.
\u201cHallelujah Praise Jehovah\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
